Mr. Jim Gannon:

On that latter point regarding economic growth, there is a very real risk that we could bring on intermittent renewable energy without matching it to demand. We need to ensure that we decarbonise economic growth in the country at both residential and large energy user scale. The demand-side strategy needs to include consideration of how to get demand to be more flexible so as to align with when we have solar and wind energy coming through our wires, how to quantify, track and monitor that and how to make sure that the value is attributed to the right areas as we do that. That is a key risk and it needs to be considered in the demand-side strategy. As the Senator has outlined, it is, in fact, at the core of it.
